Crypto scammer caught and arraigned by EFCC.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I think I like the approach taken by the EFCC this time around; it would have even been better if the court had fined him x4 of what he scammed people off of. So that's going to hurt him so bad to raise that money; at least he will also feel the pain that victims feel any time they are rubbed off the little money they have. Scammers are some people who don't have conscience; they don't even care how victims would feel if they lost their asset, so any time a scammer is caught, he or she should also experience the kind of pain they put people through. I just urge everyone to be extremely careful during this period. As we are about to enter a season of celebration, people are looking for ways to make extra income, and scammers are also looking for victims.

Yes the guy thief big money but as him don plead guilty from the beginning not stressing the court nah make the judge in his wisdom nack am that punishment of 200k. Na so I just reason am.

Even if they arrest scammers and they charge them to court, e no go disturb them because they know say if they plead guilty, na just small money dem go fine dem and dem go dey free again, if they catch scammers, money wey dem suppose charge them suppose even pass the amount wey dem talk say dey don make, and if they no fit meet up make them sentence them to prison, I dey sure say anybody wey wan scam go dey reason am twice because anyone wey dem catch go see shege. But why will you arrest scammer and u come dey fine them 200k, e go better make dem just leave them for free.

Nah that urge to make quick money the make them newbies the lose the small wey them get, them for them to go after the knowledge first so that them go fit use am protect their sef against anybody way wan use their head them the underrate knowledge the shook eyes for money first forgetting say knowledge is profited to direct.

U sabi d condition of dis country now, u know how things dey hard now, most of those newbies no really get better orientation, most people wey dey carry dem come dey always miss lead them, so dey believe say if you just join bitcoin, u go start to dey make money instantly, but things no be like that, most of them no get proper orientation, and dey no get people wey go guide them.

E no funny o, those people show me shege walai talai! E get one them add me for radom Telegram group where them dey trade among themselves using the plenty admin them as escrow. I observe them for sometime come dey think say them legit. I cone say make I buy from them, na so they obtain me and quickly ban me for the group. E be like say make I faint. As I no die for scammers hand, I know say I go live long.

Baba no be small shege you don see for scammers hand. I don use P2P for Whatsapp and telegram but so far I no get that kind experience but I like as you share your own experience so that other persons go learn.

You get luck say them no scam you o. Wetin I take eye see untop scammers ehhh, I no fit share am finish. Na only WhatsApp them no scam me but I don collect woto woto from Facebook and Telegram. If I dey see people wey dey join Bitcoin now, I dey envy them because the road don soft now... the various formats of scammers don cast finish so them no fit get those terrible experiences wey we get.

The major challenge now na hackers and phishing... those people dey worry wetin no good. Make we just dey careful because the street no good at all.

This is why one needs to make a focusable decision on which of the cryptocurrencies to be adopted in order to be rooted of it and learns diligently in the regulatory and the techniques of the  Cryptocurrency and do not be so emotionally flexible to impressions of high valuable rate (s) (higher profits) of the digital currency with or without obtaining grounded knowledges about it.

Specifically, acknowledging to this guides would caution and let you know that crypto is a decentralized currency in a P2P networking Blockchains and basically enlightens you to possible risks and which cryptocurrency is best fit reliable to trade on.
Basically,  no one has a monopoly audacity to make an increase or decrease to cryptocurrencies. This is so that no one would convince you to trade on whatever platform to make a higher profit instead, he is on a disguise to brainwash you (scams you) with the sugarcoated words.

The rise and befalls of cryptocurrencies is affectional to it all investors. This is so that no disguised scammer would convince you to specifically offer you a profit as an individual investors.
Those are my words of advices to the newbies

However, I am not impressed of the judiciary charging the scammer #200K out of over $2K realized victimizing people in the industry. They should be charged higher to extend threats to those still and yet on the same illegal indulgences.
I just wonders why and how "App Stores" and the authorities grants publishing accesses to unconfirmed and unrealistic app developers and web developers that had come this far compromising the integrities and potentials of legal developments with its illegal indulgences.

But I am orderly impressed that the government could come to an aid to protecting the interest of cryptocurrencies even right from the federal level. That should be a standby hoping for the unband of the cryptocurrencies here in our country with a massive booming explorations to my darling Bitcoin in the closest time.

The level were this scamming things done reach now,  e come be like say person no go do business again and not trying out new businesses because a lot of those businesses that you don't know are or most likely going to end in scam and you losing money on the long run,  this is why,  is most important to only stick to those few business that you already know have have experienced in them,  this is very important for our well being and avoiding possible scams all in the name of investment.

Cases like this,  are what have given crypto a bad name in our society on a a global scale and the reason why they always refer to crypto as a great tool in the hands of criminals,  so nice one by the court,  but a 200k fine for the scam of over 2 million as at today exchange rate of the $2,000 is kind of poor punishment for such crime.

The scams dem too sef don too look real sotey newbies dem too no fit escape am. Na only strong hands dem wey don tey for the system dem know what's up. Although at the earliest stage of my Crypto life, I learnt so.many crypto lessons wey open my eyes to know the good and the bad for crypto. Me I believe say Na newbie dem wey no want to cool down learn Naim dey fall into those scam dem because dem dey always in a hurry dem no want to dey patient and as for that man, him matter don be o. Him don enter one chance for EFCC hand because all those money dem wey him don scam people, him senior colleagues dem for EFCC go help am small.

No be everybody wey chat you up you.go quick go dey do crypto transaction with wey you no know anything about them but Na for platform wey you no know who add you up. It is good we be careful, cautious and alert because they are everywhere and waiting for who to fall victim so they could strip dem off their funds.

Scam na normal thing for any online business, because you no de see di person face to face. Di best thing na make we no totally trust any business wey we see for internet with all our mind, because you no know di one wey be scam. We need to totally avoid WhatsApp and telegram groups wey de tell us to come do p2p transactions for dem platform. Di best place to do p2p transactions na for exchanges, even at dat we need to choose reputable exchanges like binance, wey don proof dem integrity for di market. Still at dat sef scammer merchants dem still de inside di exchanges, na make we receive money inside account first before we release coins.

EFCC try as dem catch dat scammer, because e good to shame dis criminals and make dem to face di full wrath of di law. Aldo i no de impressed about how dem just fine di guy 200k, wey im scam over 2m, dem suppose give am stiffer punishment wey go serve as a deterrent to oda scammers say crime de bad. Infact di cash fine wey dem give am na morale to him and other scammers say after all if dem catch dem las las na to pay fine, wey go just be some percentage of di money wey dem don scam people. But if to say dem find am guilty, give am better jail term and confiscate im properties wey pass di total money wey  im don steal from people, dat one for de better.

This is a good move by our law enforcement agencies, this so called identified scammers, making crypto look like scam, but let's be realistic people always fall for this tricks of scammers, anyways they should blamed because they are not much aware of the system, another major fact that we should put into consideration that's causing this scam of a thing is altcoin, people are just too inquisitive about investing in any thing called cryptocurrency without making thorough investigation about such coin, they will put some writeup and pictures to deceived them to invest, the truth if you must have an asset in the digitalized firm, the way forward is bitcoin, I know people will say how much will I invest to, invest what you have, don't be greedy, in this kind of investment your asset is secured, as for p2p transactions, renounced exchanges remains the best, don't go for exchanges without name because of their fake rate to avoid regret.

E good for that guy, Shabi dem no wan gree change, fast and easy money dey sweet dem, I like as dem carry am go court asap so em no go fit manipulate the system, and I believe the amount wey the call for there na just small portion of wattin em don dey do dey come since. Because na all this kind of things dey make some people wey nor know wattin Bitcoin be, dey call am scam, na dem be one of the greatest reason why em adoption still dey for ground somehow, any ways as the op don talk newbies make una shine una eye oo because of you loose guard na you sabi oo.

Nigerian court don convict one man wey pretend to be a peer-to-peer (p2p) cryptocurrency trader wit  social media platform him create using a female name to de scam unsuspecting public pipul wey wan try gain interest for crypto wey we dey normally call dem newbies.

Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) nah catch de go court com nack am charge borderin on cybercrime and de man agree say him guilty as charged.  According to the scamma him tok say him don achieve wella from dis illegal buzinex for monie wey reach $2000 from him victims. Na so court com sentence am to a fine of #200,000.00 (two hundred thousand naira). Source

To newbies as u don enta dis crypto space mk unah shine unah eyes no allow or agree to anybodi com de tell you or advise you to join any platform say nah buzinex investment lik dat, say e dey pay well, com de show you nonsense evidence how e don pay am - oyinbo man call dis type of scam as Pig-Butchering-Scam.

De meanin of dat gramma be say, scamma go first tok to u lik beta person com create cordial relationship wit u about some buzinex com de tune you to invest say you go catch out, and dem fit allow you catch out ur first monie you put just to mk you feel comfortable so dat you fit invest bigger amount for de next one, nah dat time dem go scam you com jakpa wit ur investment monie. So mk we dey careful as we de use crypto mk we no com fall scam anyhow.

this na one of the reason when de make people loose interest for any online investment platform as the rate when scammers take de full there don become very alarming. And this one too fully for the reason when we make all this security people de intimidate an average person when he hustle legally online because the bad ones don full the space and de done create bad reputation full ground and so even when you de try to let most of this law enforcement agency know say your hustle legit, them no go free hear am as there mind don de made up say any person when he do online business de into fraudulent stuff.
